Rated 1 out of 5 by MikeyH False advertising
Bought this receiver for one reason - to stream video as it advertises that it does so I don't have to do it through my Playstation. One major problem... It does not stream video.

Rated 3 out of 5 by bensonhedges 1 zone or 2?
Pandora will not play on zone 2 when you listen to different source on zone 1. No volume feed back on tv screen when using Hdmi inputs?? how about no volume feed back on the front of the Sony to make it really interesting. Fix these two limitations and you have a great receiver.
